Slow and steady  – at our last Vestry ( May 27^th) meeting a discussion developed concerning envelope giving versus e-offering. It was observed that e-offering is a steady, known and dependable method of supporting the Parish whether one is present on a given Sunday or not and does not require remembering to fill out an envelope or perform ‘catch-up’ if one misses a Sunday. This approach also further assumes that folks actually play catch-up for missed Sundays and sadly this is often NOT the case. The reality e-offering also addresses is - the bills continue to come in even if you are not here!
